would like to make contact re SHP Boughey and the VC but "personal messages " only available if one has made at least three posts. This only my second post so you will need to reply to me and I can then make a third post. The family tree that I have compiled goes back a long way which could be of interest to you.

Just joined Roots and read your post. SHP Boughey is a relative of my wife and I note that some details are not up to date. While I can't help re. the memorial I should point out that Stanley was English (mother Lucy born in Cheshire as was his father) - he was born 3,Danube St. Toxteth Park Liverpool, and never lived in Scotland albeit that he jopined the Ayrshire Yeomanry Territorials in 19816 before promoted to Officer training at Kinmael Park, N.Wales in Dec.1916. He was gazetted as 2nd Lt.18.4.1917 with the 1/4th Battalion Royal Scots Fusiliers.              I am at this time seeking information as to the whereabouts of his VC medal which was first sold in 1986 and a second time in 1988. Can anyone help please ?
